Hi

You should add less file in this folder templatest3_bs3_blankless

Best regards

Thanks but you can not do it just like that.

I tried it this without success even if you compile less to css right after.
I can create it in local/themes/mytheme, then import it – @import “my.less” – through the override template.less there.
I was looking a more “official” way to do it.

Regards

Well the file is not compiling.
I tried a million times.

A worked solution I found is:
1. to create a folder named: less/extras
2. put inside your.less
3. Compile less to css
4. A your.css is created inside: local/css/extras/your.css
5. Declare your.css inside etc/assets.xml

I am wondering why it is not compiling a xxx.less in root less/ directory
Are you 100% sure? I am working in a pure Joomla + T3 environment.

According to the code in the t3 plugin, it only compiles the files that are part of its own template and it ignores the files inside /t3_template/less/themes.

So create any folder inside /t3_template/less/extra or /t3_template/less/myfiles put less files there.

Hi,

You can try to follow the steps below

• Create new less file from t3_template/less/extra follder

• Open t3_template/less/template.less file and import new less file into this file with format

@import "path-new-less-file"; 

• Click Compile LESS to CSS button: http://prntscr.com/d14p3f

Hope it helps

Regards

I have done just this but it´s not generating, also tried with developer mode on.

path: "htdocs/templates/ja_teline_v/local/less/custom.less"
I also tried to add a plain .css file but to luck. "htdocs/templates/ja_teline_v/local/css/custom.css"

@mackelito: With the CSS file, you can create templates/ja_teline_v/css/custom.css file and add the CSS style into it. If it could not help you out, you can provide me the URL here for further investigation
